Well I had dyselxia so I was crap at school. I was good at sport and good at driving so thats what I've had to settle for. I enjoy it tho and the pay is quite good. I would like to be a train driver eventually. I'm just no good with education I was crap at school, we cannot all be blessed with good brains you know

You should have got yourself a better education so that you could have ended up as something better than a busdriver. :]

[thooko]

Good. You should be careful.

I hate bikes and motorbikes they make me really paronoid. As a bus driver you are just soooo big and they are so small, I cannot be happy driving when they are behind me, I'm constantly checking my mirrors for them. People at my work joke that I have a bike radar cos I spot em from miles away then start to slow down. People are like 'why are you slowing down ALREADY!?!'
